Our Prediction
The two best Test Cricket teams in World, South Africa and England, will face each other in 1st Test of 4-game series. The match is scheduled at Kingsmead in Durban on 26 December 2015.
The Basil D’Oliveira Trophy is one of the most awaited cricket series of the year. The Proteas have retained their title of being the number 1 Test side in World. However, their confidence was very much shaken by 3-0 series defeat to India. Team England also participates in this series after 2-0 loss to Pakistan in UAE. Both the sides need to adjust to seaming conditions. The South Africans, however, have an edge of playing at familiar conditions back home.
The hosts will play in absence of Vernon Philander in first 2-Test matches. On the other side, omission of Ian Bell in visiting side has raised many eyebrows. Dayle Steyn is completely fit to lead the bowling attack. Kyle Abbott and Rababda are other seamers in the squad. As for visitors, expert predictions suggest that Alex Hales might open batting attack with Cook.
To get a complete idea of who to place your bets on, the expected winning team and betting tips for South Africa vs England 1st Test, read the following text…
South Africa Team News & Playing 11
AB was the lone batsman who shined in series against India. Now when he plays on pitches back home, things will be even more competitive for opposition. Amla is the leading run getter for his side, thus, bets can be placed on him. Morne Morkel could be the man of the moment for Proteas and high stakes are being placed on him in online betting network. AB is a powerhouse of talent, so he is another safe bet.
As of now, majority of the trends are favoring hosts for a win. Although the margin is sleek but, it would be wise putting your money on team South Africa.
England Team News & Playing 11
England last won an innings in this ground in 2009 Boxing Day Test. Thus, previous records give them a reason to rejoice. However, Ian Bell’s absence is a cause of concern. Steven Finn’s fitness is a confidence booster for the entire team. Root, Stuart Board and James Anderson also seem to be raring to go. As for the key players to place bets on, the betting odds for Captain Cook are reasonably good. Finn could also be a good surprise package for visitors and you can place bets on him. Ben Stokes is also well placed in the squad, betting on him can also be a profitable deal.
Final Prediction:
The Proteas are placed above visitors in terms of betting odds for South Africa vs England 1st Test. The betting predictions as per trusted online punters are
South Africa- 2.26, England- 3.35 and Draw- 3.75
